New York, March 1.-THE Cleri-
cal Union of New York and Brooklyn,
having IL membership of clergymen
irrespective of creed or denomination,
having in mind the recent action of n
body of ministers at Chicago relative
to Henry Ward Beecher and his death,
at a special meeting held to-day unani-
mously adopted lengthy minutes, the
same designed secondarly to offset the
attitude of the Chicago clergy. 1t re-
cites that Mr.. Beecher was fellow
member more than q quarter OF CEN
tury, and says: "We bow reveren-
TALLY before Almighty God in the
sense of an irreparable loss; but yet
also with gratitude for the painless
close of our brothers life
and in special and heartfelt
acknowledgement of the mani
fold blessings which, by Divine grace,
through his prolonged work and min
istry have been impaired to the cities
of the nation and world" 1t pays n
glowing tribute to his commanding
genius; declares that he possessed II
wealth of practical emotional sensi-
bility, spiritual insight and enthusi-
asm for truths which kindle and
master men; such MS have made him
supreme among the preachers and
orators of his time. 1t reviews ut
length his career as foremost champ
ion OF human liberty and of the rights
of the oppressed; reviews his attitude
toward slavery, his position during the
close of the war, and adds: "This
chosen field of service was therefore
the ministry of the christian gospel,
its Office was to him as broad as phil
anthropy itself, it's pulpit was his
home and his throne, its maxium of
justice and charity were the burden
OF his message, differing often
and radically from many of his breth-
ren, even from those who loved him
most, upon points of doctrine, he yet
felt himself to be at home with them
with which he bowed before cruciiied
divine Lord aud Savior. Christ was
his glory and love and was the central
theme OF his speech and the moral
elevation and salvation of man, the OBJ
ject of his regard. We, therefore, lay
upon his grave tribute OF our sim
cere regard and affection. We felt the
charm of his personality, he had Il love
for fame aud popular applause, and
the support of the most devoted
church. He goes on without break
into the realm where genius can un-
fold all her powers, where the soul can
expand to the most of its possibilities
and where the man we know can be-
hold the Christ we all love and wor-
ship him as Lord OF ALL" The tribute
closes with words of sympathy to his
wife and family with resolution to
attend the services in n body. The
minute was signed by Rev. 4. Dewitt
Talmngc and twenty-onc Others of
various denominations.

LONDON, March 1l.-The Prince of
Wales presided to-day at the annual
meeting OF the Royal Thames Yacht
Club. The secretary of the club an
nounced that the money one thous-
and guineas, for the principal prize,
had already been subscribed in full by
ninety members of the club. That
plenty of funds were coming in to
make up several prizes which the club
desired to offer for additional races
during the jubilee season. June 14th
has been fixed as the date for starting
the thousand guinea race, and the
course laid out is from More north
ward up the east coast Of England
around Scotland and Ireland to Dover.
The complaint made by an American
newspaper that the cruise includes the
narrow channels is unfounded, the
only one in the course being
the English channel, which
surely is wide enough for
all competitors of the race.
the race will be permitted to choose
any course they please so long MS they
keep the mainland on their port. A
full text of the conditions OF the great
race will be issued within fortnight.
The conditions will include time al
lowance according to tonnage on slid
ing scale. Prince of Wales approved
the plan OF race and expressed delight
at being permitted to cooperate in the
jubilee programme of the club. He
promised to act as starter of the race
and to enter his own schooner as
competitor. The meeting was a very
enthusiastic one and was attended by
all the leading yachtmen of Great
Britain.

day expects the president to be con-
sistent, or even honest, and no one
is particularly surprised when he
fails to live up to the pretentions of
himself and friends.
What does create some wonder Is
the fact that the president should
not think it worth while to cater to
Indiana in the same way he has done
to Texas. Indiana helped to elect
him in 1884, and it is natural to sup
pose that with his peculiar notions
of public policy and presidential
duties he should wish to hold the
state solid for 'SS, to say nothing Of
rewarding her for past efforts. His
failure to do so by rewarding the
Lafayette bill looks as though he
had given the state up, and thought
it worth while to waste no more am
munition upon her. Mr.. Cleveland's
perceptive powers are large where
his own interests are concerned, and
he cannot fail to recognize not only
his own unpopuiarity, but also the
extreme improbability that the
democracy will carry Indiana next
year for himself or any other man.
His tacit acknowledgement of this
great truth in the veto of the bill
mentioned indicates his intention to
play the game of 'ss without the In
diana nine.spot. Lafayette suffers
temporarily by his decision, but will
look forward hopefully to the repub-
lican administration which will SEQ
justice done. Journal.

THE stories that reach us of the
southern boom have for the most
part solid basis of fact. 1t is
strange tU think that the land which
once flowed with milk and honey
for the great plantation owners,
should now be fourth or fifth rate
as regards agricultural adaptability,
while it Is found to fairly TEEN with
iron ore, fine porcelain clays, all
kind of stones, and even asphaltum,
petroleum and natural gas. What
this great infusion of new blood, of
new interests and ways and means
of making a living, will do to change
public sentiment is another matter
that gives unbounded latitude for
speculation. However, it is not too
much TO expect that commercial
interests will some day shatter the
solid south and that Tennessee,
Georgia, Alabama and perhaps North
Carolina will be marching shoulder
to shoulder in the protection col
umn, led by Pennsylvania, Ohio and
the other staunch republican states.

The home seems to be losing its
popularity, and Americans are fast
becoming nation of boarding house
and hotel patrons. There are al
ready thousands of children grow
ing up to manhood and womanhood,
who have not the slightest compre-
hension of the term. Their life has
been a troubled pilgrimage from one
hostelry to another, q confused rec
objection of chamber maids and bell
boys; of rules relating to second ia
bles and children in the parlor.
They know nothing of the delight
full experience of more fortunate
children, whose home life has been
crowded full of pleasures that are
not possible to dwellers in boarding
houses. Poets still sing of the beau
ties of home, and John Howard
Payne's dust, brought back from AL
giers, was buried again in his native
land with splendid pomp and cere-
mony, in recognition of his immor-
tai lyric. Lecturers talk of home.
No Fourth of July Grafton, no after
dinner speech is complete without
its tribute to the Lares and Penates.
Books with such titles as "Home
and Mother," are compiled and pub
lished, and sold by ubiquitous book
agents, who cunningly appeal to the
reverence for old traditions,
which still survive in the
hearts of most men and
women. Preachers deliver senti-
mental hOmilies upon home; poll
ticians ondeaver to content women
who aspire to political recognition
with their lot by euologizing the
home and the influence OF the wife
and mother dwelling within it and
presiding there wisely and lovingly.
The eulogies may not be sincere,
but they are not certainly over
nor are the editorials on
the same prolific theme, which ap- /
pear in all the great newspapers
with monotonous regularity. Yet, .
Notwithstanding all this, the legend
ITO Lett appears in the windows of
4 vast number of residences in all of

ng increase OF guests at boarding
houses and hotels. There is reason
'or it, as there is for all existing con.
litions. The.burden of housekeeping
